LEO(Low Earth Orbit) Satellite which is discarded should be reentered to atmosphere in 25 years by '25 years rule' of IADC(Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee) Guidelines. If the parts of satellite are survived from severe aerothermodynamic condition, it could damage to human and property. South Korea operates KOMPSAT-2 and STSAT series as LEO satellite. It is necessary to dispose of them by reentering atmosphere. Therefore this paper analyze the trajectory, survivability, casualty area and casualty probability of a virtual LEO satellite using ESA(European Space Agency)'s DRAMA(Debris Risk Assesment and Mitigation Analysis) tool. As a result, it is noted that casuality area is $15.2742m^2$ and casualty probability is 5.9614E-03 then will be survived 198.831kg.

Radio Frequency Test Set (RFTS) is essential to verify Telemetry, Command & Ranging (TC&R) RF subsystem of both Low Earth Orbit (LEO) and Geostationary Earth Orbit (GEO) satellite during Assembly Integration & Test (AI&T). The existing RFTS was specialized for each project and needed to be modified for each new satellite. The new design enables RFTS to be used in various projects. The hardware and software was designed considering this and therefore it could be directly used in other projects within a similar test period without modification or inconvenience. It will be also easily controlled, modified, and managed through the extension in modularization according to each function and the use of COTS (commercial on-the-self) and this will improve system reliability. A more reliable RF test measurement is also provided in this new RFTS by using an accurate reference clock signal.

This article investigates the problem of data preprocessing for the precision orbit determination (POD) of low earth orbit satellite using GPS .aw data. Several data preprocessing algorithms have been developed to edit the GPS data automatically such that outlier deletion, cycle slip identification and correction, and time tag error correction. The GPS data are precisely edited for the accuracy of POD. Some methods of data preprocessing are restricted to the rate of the collections of the pseudorange and carrier phase measurements. This study considers the preprocessing efficiency varied with the rate, the quality of receiver and the altitude of the satellite's orbit. We also propose the proper methods in accordance with the rate for single frequency and dual frequency receivers.

In order to provide high-speed wide-band multimedia services via Low earth(LEO) mobile satellire, power and bandwidth efficient digital transmission technique should to employed. This paper analyzes the performance of Trellis-soded 16QAM and 8PSK-2AM which can transmit twice as much inforemation as QPSK in nonlinearly amplified LEO mobile satellite channel. In the analysis the nonlinear mobile satellite channel is modelled by Rician fading channel amplified by Fujitsu's GaAs FET HPA. Our simulation result shows that 8PSK-2AM is less sensitive to the satellite channel nonlinear distortion and its BER performance is better than that of 16QAM. The BER performance of 8PSK-2AM is further improved by optimizing its signal constellation. Accocordingly it is found that Trellis-coded 8PSK-2AM could provide multimedia services such as Satellite Internet, DBS, DAB and ISDB more efficiently in the power and bandwidth limited mobile satellite channel.

This paper addresses the analysis of the interference produced between the LEO(Low Earth Orbit) satellite constellation and FS(Fixed Service) system operating in the same frequency and area. At first, we calculates the interference of FS system from the LEO satellite constellation depending on the number of LEO satellite antenna beams. Simulation results show that the amount of interference that was calculated from each region. This result can be used to define the carrier level for protecting FS system from total interference by LEO satellite constellation. In the second scenario, we calculates the interference of LEO satellite system earth station by the FS link depending on radius of protection area. The presented results can be used to design FS systems minimizing interference to earth station.

이 논문에서는 저궤도 지구관측위성 비행모델의 정현파 가진시험 결과에 대하여 분석하였다. 정현파 가진시험은 발사환경시험중의 하나로서, 저주파 대역의 정현파 진동 환경하에서 인공위성의 안정성을 검증하는데 그 목적이 있다. 정현파 가진시험의 입력선도는 발사체로부터 선정되어진다. 발사체로부터 선정된 입력선도는 극한의 경우를 고려한 선도이므로 실제 정현파 가진시험시에는 입력선도에 적절한 노칭을 적용하여야 한다. 노칭은 주구조물의 대한 1차 노칭과 부가 구조물에 대한 2차 노칭으로 구분이 되어 적용되었다. 정현파 가진시험의 전후에는 저수준 정현파가진시험을 수행하였으며, 주파수 응답함수를 비교함으로서 구조적으로 문제가 없는지를 확인하였다. 시험 후, 육안검사를 통하여 구조 부재가 이상이 없는지를 최종 확인하였으며, 인공위성비행모델이 정현파 가진 환경하에서 충분히 안전함을 확인하였다.
